prediction of response to depression interventions using clinical and td-fnirs measurements

Conditions: Depression; Major Depressive Disorder

Summary: the purpose of the current study is to perform a unified, homogeneous data collection protocol that includes a large cohort of patients undergoing different treatment options for major depressive disorder (mdd) as an avenue for investigating optimal biomarkers for depression treatments on an individual patient level.
